Description

Highland Park 17 Years Old The Dark Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Volume: 700ml ABV: 52.9% Age: 17 Years Old Country: Scotland

Dark and light are concepts that exist in opposition, yet together create a perfect balance. One cannot exist without the other; as one appears, the other disappears; together they create something greater than themselves – in nature, a perfect, continuous cycle.

In THE DARK – a special release of only 28,000 bottles – we celebrate autumn and winter on Orkney; a time to escape from the wild weather outside and gather together with friends and family, sharing long nights of conversation and laughter around the table, around the fire.

Presented in a beautifully embossed black glass bottle, the serpent dragon design takes its inspiration from the great Norse sagas and embraces both the high sun of summer solstice and the low sun of winter solstice – the polar opposites of our island seasons – while the runic writing reflects the ancient carvings of our Viking ancestors, here on Orkney.

Names then gave they to noon and twilight, morning they named, and the waning moon, night and evening, the years to number. – Voluspa, The Poetic Edda, Verse 6

Highland Park The Dark won a double gold in the San Francisco spirits competition 2018.
